EMB FUTURE SCIENCE BRIEF 
European Marine Board IVZ'” 
The European Marine Board provides a pan-European platform for its member organizations to develop common 
priorities, to advance marine research, and to bridge the gap between science and policy in order to meet future marine 
science challenges and opportunities. 
The European Marine Board is an independent and self-sustaining science policy interface organisation that currently 
represents 35 Member Organizations from 18 European countries. It was established in 1995 to facilitate enhanced 
cooperation between European marine science organizations towards the development of a common vision on the 
strategic research priorities for marine science in Europe. The EMB promotes and supports knowledge transfer for 
‚mproved leadership in European marine research. Its membership includes major national marine or oceanographic 
institutes, research funding agencies and national consortia of universities with a strong marine research focus. Adopting 
a strategic role, the European Marine Board serves its member organizations by providing a forum within which marine 
research policy advice is developed and conveyed to national agencies and to the European Commission, with the 
objective of promoting the need for, and quality of, European marine research.
